Have uploaded all 6 sides of some the best mix tapes I ever bought. DJ Muro is a Japanese beat digger of world wide fame. He has a seriously deep, unknown record collection. About 8 years ago he put out these three tapes called King of Diggin' 1, 2 and 3. All three had excellent Burger King rip off art work. All three are 90 minutes of mad, rare, unheard of funk, soul and jazz classics... and the mixing is all done live... and is tight nd funky. This was way before all the "Dusty Fingers" comps and re-issue mania we are in now. These are just the work of a man on a mission to find every record that funks. He's since gone on to rule Japanese Hip Hop and release comilations for Stones Throw and Blue Note... but only available in Japan... So download this lot, it's easier.

BBE have just released a compliation put together by Muro and two others Kon & Amir. All tunes are bound to be wicked and unfindable. There's a nice You Tube video of Amir talking about beat digggin'. Check.
